Former Reds Player Joins Front Office in New Role

Former Cincinnati Reds catcher Curt Casali has retired and took a job with the team's front office earlier this season, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

Casali played with the Reds across three seasons from 2018 to 2020. In his three years with Cincinnati, he hit the ball well, slashing .247/.336/.402 with 42 extra-base hits. He often shared playing time with Tucker Barnhart in his time with the Reds.

The 36-year-old also spent time with the Tampa Bay Rays, San Francisco Giants, and the Seattle Mariners in his 11-year career.

Casali played in 41 games with the Giants last season, but he did not appear in a game this year before retiring.

It is unclear on what Casali's role is with the Reds front office.

The Reds finished the season 83-79 and made the postseason for the first time since 2020 and the first full season since 2013. However, they fell in two games to the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Wild Card series.
